Overview
- Daniel Robert McJannett, 39, represented himself via video link in a short Brisbane Supreme Court bail hearing on Thursday.
- He is charged with murdering Matthew Berry, 37, and with stealing the home's CCTV storage device and possessing a large amount of cannabis.
- Crown prosecutor Zachary Kaplan told the court the murder case is strong and argued that strict conditions would not sufficiently reduce risk.
- Justice Peter Callaghan referenced repeated drug convictions and a weapons entry on McJannett’s record, as well as past offending while on bail or parole.
- McJannett remains in custody awaiting trial without a plea entered, more than two years after Berry was found dead at his Tamborine Mountain home.
